This  highly  vahiable  sale  of  coins  is  comprised  of  two  in- 
teresting English  collections.     The  first  portion  consisting  of 
Greek,  Roman  and  English  coins,  the  property  of  a  gentleman 
formerly  an  officer  in  the  army,  who  does  not  desire  his  name 
to  transpire,  and  described  in  the  lots  from  Nos.  1  to  630, 
contains  many  unusually  fine  and  rare  pieces,  particularly  the 
beautiful  Syracuse  medallion,  No.  15 ;  the  Arsinoe  octadrachm, 
No.  69 ;  the  extremely  rare  Stater  of  Diodotus,  No.  65 ;  several 
very  fine  Roman  aurei;    the  complete  series  of  four  pieces  of 
Anglo-Gallic  gold  of  Edward  III.  and  the  Black  Trince,  Nos. 
143  to  7;    the  excessively  rare  groat  of  1494,  No.  163,  never 
before  offered  in  this  country;  a  rare  shilling  of  Henry  VIII., 
No.  168 ;  half-sovereign  of  Edward  III.,  No.  172 ;  the  splendid' 
series  of  coins  of  Elizabeth,  in  gold  and  silver;    the  James  I. 
fine  sovereign;    the  extremely  rare  siege  pieces  of  Pontefract 
of  Charles  II.;    the  Oliver  Cromwell  set  of  silver;    Wxq  rare 
crown  of  William  IV.,  and  the  extremely  rare  portrait  testoon 
of  Mary,  Queen  of  Scots,  which  is  another  piece  that  has  never 
before  appeared  in  an  American  auction  sale,  and  the  splendid 
series  of  war  me(hd8  and  decorations,  perhaps  the  largest  that 
has  ever  been  ofi'ered  in  this  country.     In  this  series^  the  rare 
medal  for  the  War  of  1812  and  for  Northwest  Canada,  1885, 
described  in  the  Canadian  series  may  also  be  included. 

The  second  portion  is  the  collection  of  :\rr.  E.  J.  M.  Chal- 
oner,  beginning  with  lot  030  and  is  comprised  of  coins' of  the 
United  States  and  Canada,  among  which  are  manv  rare  pieces 
of  great  interest,  particularly  the  N.  E.  shilling;  the  set  of 
silver  coins  of  Lord  Baltimore;  the  Rosa  Americana  series 
containing  the  excessively  rare  two-pence  of  1724,  only  one 
other  known,  and  the  very  fine  quarter  dollar  of  1796,  and 
finally  a  fine  collection  of  Canadian  coins  an<l  medals^  the 
chief  point  of  merit  in  which  is  the  perhaps  finest  series  in

PREFACE. 


existenco  of  the  Canadian  Bank  Tokens  of  1838  to  1839,  to 
■\vliich  we  have  given  special  study  and  have  described  them 
at  full  length  with  great  exactness,  so  that  with  the  aid  of  the 
plate  which  gives  all  the  dies,  collectors  will  be  able  to  discern 
the  varieties,  and  will  find  the  catalogue  to  be  in  the  future  a 
valuable  reference  for  this  series,  as  neither  of  the  works  on 
the  subject,  Le  Koux  or  Breton,  have  given  it  the  critical 
study  or  description,  or  illustration  with  a  photographic  plate, 
which  it  demands. 

The  splendid  series  of  Jewish  shekels  and  half  shekels  of 
Simon  Maccabeus,  Nos.  55  to  62,  and  the  coins  of  Vespasia- 
nus  referring  to  Judea,  Nos.  89  to  93,  are  also  the  property  of 
Mr.  Chaloner,  but  we  have  placed  them  in  their  proper  order 
in  the  series  of  Greek  and  Roman  coins  of  the  first  portion. 

These  collections  have  been  placed  in  our  hands  for  abso- 
lute sale  withoat  any  reserve,  except  in  the  few  lots  upon 
which  the  limits  are  printed  in  the  catalogue.  We  refused  lo 
accept  the  sale  with  limits,  and  the  owners  then  only  placed 
limits  on  the  few  lots  mentioned,  for  the  sale  of  which  they 
were  fearful  in  this,  to  them,  untried  market,  and  on  these 
10  per  cent,  commission  is  to  be  paid ;  and  our  patrons  will 
therefore  see  that  the  sale  is  thoroughly  bona  fide,  and  this 
penalty  will  be  incurred  upon  all  lots  bought  in. 

Many  of  the  pieces  of  highest  rarity  are  not  limited. 

On  account  of  some  limits  being  placed,  we  feel  it  due  to 
the  owners  to  declare  that  the  collections  do  not  belong  to  us, 
nor  have  we  placed  nor  do  we  own  a  single  piece  in  the  sale. 

In  our  opinion  the  limits  are  all  reasonable  and  the  coins 
worth  more — in  fact  the  owners  put  them  below  cost  en- 
deavoring to  allow  a  margin  that  would  insure  sale.  The 
averay-e  raritv  and  value  of  the  coins  in  the  sale  is  nnusuallv 
high. 

C-atalogues,  with  five  autotype  plates,  price  $1,  will  be 
issued,  and  priced  copies  of  the  catalogues  v,  ithout  plates  will 
be  supplied  after  the  sale  for  50  cents.  We  guarantee  all  the 
coins  and  medals  genuine  and  original  unless  otherwise  de- 
scribed.
